large images: United States Northeast West Nile Virus, first reported in the United States in 1999, causes flu-like symptoms that may lead to fatal encephalitis in people with compromised immune systems, such as the elderly. Though not yet proven, scientists believe the disease may be spread across the country by infected birds traveling along their migration routes. Mosquitoes that act as a vector carry the virus and pass it on when feeding on hosts like birds, livestock, other...

Saturday's clear skies over the southeastern United States allowed SeaWiFS to collect this view around noon. Smoke from fires in the Appalachians is no longer readily discernible at one-kilometer resolution. (Reports indicate that recent rains have helped contain the fires.) Sensor: OrbView-2/SeaWiFS. Data Start Date: 11/11/00.

Air quality across the Great Lakes and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States is less than ideal in late June 2002. Much of the pollution is likely smoke from forest fires in the West and fires in Canada’s prairie provinces to the north. Since the dominant weather patterns across the country move air from west to east, it is not uncommon for air quality along the East Coast to be affected by fires out West.This series of images from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)...

The Army Ballistic Missile Agency incorporated the von Braun team in key positions with Dr. von Braun as a head of the Development Operations Division. On October 4, 1957, the Nation was shocked when the Russians launched Sputnik, the world's first artificial satellite. Two months later, the United States suffered disappointment when a Navy Vanguard rocket, with its satellite payload, failed to develop sufficient thrust and toppled over on the launch pad.

During the early introduction of rockets to Europe, they were used only as weapons. Enemy troops in India repulsed the British with rockets. Later, in Britain, Sir William Congreve developed a rocket that could fire to about 9,000 feet. The British fired Congreve rockets against the United States in the War of 1812.
